Best Answer

Most Linux distributions come with several PAM authentication modules, including modules that support authentication to an LDAP directory and authentication using Kerberos.

You can use these modules to authenticate to Active Directory, but there are some significant limitations.

What can be used on Linux to provide file and print services?

CUPS is the de-facto network print service for Linux and Mac. Certain windows versions can connect to it also (unless you have XP home or some other crippled version) Native Linux file transfers might occur over HTTP (Web server) FTP (FTP server) scp (ssh server) NFS (NFS 'network file system' server) SAMBA (Samba file and print service for Windows, also works as a client for win servers) Of the five, NFS is probably the preferred Linux file server (especially in a Linux/mac/Unix only environment), because you can mount the server directory on the client and it will appear as a local directory. For true compatibility with windows, there is one answer to both questions: SAMBA. Samba uses the same Small Message Block (SMB) protocol that is native to Windows clients. It is a Linux and Mac implementation of NetBios, NT File Server, NT Print Server, and Active Directory server and client all rolled into one.
